That's a perfect illustration of why using a
spell-check or its K1000 equivalent only doesn't work.
As Elizabeth points out, if one is going to do that
and not read the book, one should do a search and
replace for combinations such as the one she mentions,
"of die," "in die," etc.--and for space numeral one
space which appears instead of capital I, and other
common scannos. corn instead of com in words for
example.
